 | | This needle then is moved in and out of the adipose tissue, at which time some fat collects at the top of the Luer adapter between the needle and the tube. | | | The measured composition of adipose tissue is subject to considerable analytical as well as biological variation. | | | Changes may include a reduction in the number of cutting or stabbing movements with the needle after the initial puncture; also, the freshly obtained samples may be rinsed in saline. |

| | Several factors contribute to the development of obesity: genetics, environment, physiology, psychology, and undetermined. | | | Growth of this tissue in the rat occurs in well-defined stages. | | | Subcutaneous adipose tissue, found directly below the skin, is an especially important heat insulator in the body, because it conducts heat only one third as readily as other tissues. |

| | Adipose tissue may atrophy as a result of prolonged periods of undernutrition or, in a localized area, from injury. | | | Atrophy in a specific area is known as lipodystrophy and is sometimes a primary symptom of a disease of unknown origin that mainly affects women. | | | Depending upon the species and age of an organism, brown adipose, which derives its coloration from densely packed mitochondria, may be found in a variety of locations in the body. |

| | The skin is divided into two main regions, the epidermis, and the dermis, each providing a distinct role in the overall function of the skin. | | | The dermis is attached to an underlying hypodermis, also called subcutaneous connective tissue, which stores adipose tissue and is recognized as the superficial fascia of gross anatomy. | | | Stress, excessive sun, alcohol, tobacco, junk food, vitamin deficiencies, & hormone deficiencies cause more rapid skin aging. |
